Oracle to Postgresql migration

-
Oracle migration:
For migration first we need to install oracle database and ora2pg software and DBD oracle packages.
=>first install oracle database in server and note down the paths,username,password needed

For installing the oracle database follow the below steps:
From the root user:
create group "groupadd oinstall"
create group "dba"
create user "useradd oracle -G dba -g oinstall
create directory "mkdir /home/oracle/software"
Change ownership permissions to software directory
chown oracle:oinstall /home/oracle/software

copy the downloaded files to /home/oracle/software and untar the files
After untaring we can find "database" directory in /home/oracle/software

In database directory we find runinstaller file we need to run that file
./runinstaller

and finish the oracle database installation.
=======================================================================

After finishing the installation switch to oracle user
export the paths in .bash_profile of the oracle user:
PATH=/home/oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_2/bin:$PATH:$HOME/.local/bin:$HOME/bin
export ORACLE_HOME=/home/oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_2
export ORACLE_SID=orcl
save and exit

execute the .bash_profile
To find the oracle_sid  ps -ef | grep pmon

we will get the running processes in that:
oracle  12929   1 0  18:89  ? 00:00:00 ora_pmon_orc1

in the above proces oracle_sid is orac1, sid means "system identifier"

For logining into oracle database we have three ways:
1.sqlplus / as sysdba
2.sqlplus system/oracle
3.lsnrctl status

=======================================================================
Create user in oracle server: 
create user migration identified by migration;

give grant priviliges on migration: 
grant dba to migration;

logout of the server: 
quit

login with migration user: 
sqlplus migration/migration

--create table: 
create table test(id int,name varchar2(200),sex char(1),text1 clob);
insesrt into table: insert into test values(1,'raags','M','dzlbvrzvbvbk');

--after inserting we need do commit: commit;
 ==================================================================
For installing ora2pg package go to this link and download: 
https://github.com/darold/ora2pg/releases
after downloading go to root user and move the ora2pg package to /home/postgres  and give the postgres ownership to the ora2pg package.
untar the package and go to the ora2pg-18.2 directory and run the below commands to innstall the package
perl Makefile.sh
make
make install
========================================================================
ora2pg need perl module DBD::ORACLE for connectivity to an oracle database from perl DBI::Oracle get it from CPAN a perl repository, After setting oracle_home and ld_library_path environment variables as root user.Install DBD::Oracle.Proceed as follows
export ORACLE_HOME=/home/oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_2
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_2/lib

perl -MCPAN -e 'install DBD::ORACLE'(IF WE HAVE INTERNET TO THE SERVER WE CAN COMPLETE THE INSTALLATION OTHERWISE WE NEED TO DO MANUALLY).
export PATH=/home/postgres/software/bin:$PATH(IN ROOT USER WE NEED TO EXPORT THE PATH).
ora2pg --version
cd /etc/ora2pg
ls -ltr
cp ora2pg.conf.dist ora2pg.conf
In the above conf file we need to do configuration copy the below lines at the end of the conf file:
ORACLE_DSN      dbi:Oracle:host=localhost;sid=orcl
ORACLE_USER     migration
ORACLE_PWD      migration
SCHEMA          migration
TYPE       TABLE  PACKAGE COPY VIEW GRANT SEQUENCE TRIGGER FUNCTION PROCEDURE TABLESPACE TYPE PARTITION
OUTPUT          rc_output.sql

and we  need to change the oracle_home in the above conf file:
ORACLE_HOME   /home/oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_2
 save and exit from the conf file
and run ora2pg after running the above command we will get a plain text named in the conf file like (rc_output.sql)
cd /etc/ora2pg in this location we can find the (rc_output.sql).
Give the executive permissions to the file (chmod 777 rc_output.sql).
========================================================================
Now login to the postgres server and execute the rc_output.sql file
\i rc_output.sql
After executing the file the database is successfully migrated from the oracle to postgres.

How to Get Table Size, Database Size, Indexes Size, schema Size, Tablespace Size, column Size in PostgreSQL Database

-
In this post, I am sharing few important function for finding the size of database, table and index in PostgreSQL. Finding object size in postgresql database is very important and common. Is it very useful to know the exact size occupied by the object at the tablespace. The object size in the following scripts is in GB. The scripts have been formatted to work very easily with PUTTY SQL Editor. 1. Checking table size excluding table dependency: SELECT pg_size_pretty(pg_relation_size('mhrordhu_shk.mut_kharedi_audit')); pg_size_pretty ---------------- 238 MB (1 row) 2. Checking table size including table dependency: SELECT pg_size_pretty(pg_total_relation_size('mhrordhu_shk.mut_kharedi_audit')); pg_size_pretty ---------------- 268 MB (1 row) 3. Finding individual postgresql database size SELECT pg_size_pretty(pg_database_size('db_name')); 4. Finding individual table size for postgresql database -including dependency index: SELECT pg_size_pretty(pg_total_rel

Pg_ctl Utility & Postgresql Service to do the same thing: Start the postgres server in the background. Without PGDATA set, “pg_ctl start” needs needs the additional  -D /datadir   argument in order to start. you can start/stop the postgresql server as root user as well as postgres user root user: “ service postgresql start “ “ /etc/init.d/postgresql  start “, or “ systemctl start postgresql-10 ” – this is for redhat linux above version 6 postgres or edb user: Pg_ctl is only applicable for postgres user or edb user if you are a Enterprisedb su – postgres ./ pg_ctl start  -D /opt/PostgreSQL/9.3/data By using following anyone methods you can start,stop,reload else restart the postgresql server By using Pg_ctl Utility Postgresl -9.3 Script By using Postgresql Service 1. pg_ctl utility – as postgres user: using pg_ctl you can start/stop/reload/restart the postgresql server this utility can only permitted to access as postgres user ./pg_ctl stop -D /opt/Postg

PostgreSQL Pgbadger Installation On Linux

Image
PgBadger is a tool that analyzes PostgreSQL log files and generates reports on execution of SQL and server operation. Statistical reports analyzed from a number of perspectives can be useful not only for grasping the usual database operation but also as a hint for performance improvement. The report output by pgBadger has the following features. Graph output in HTML format Many statistical objects Daily, Weekly unit creation possible 1.Graph output in HTML format Many of the analysis results can be displayed in graph form by outputting the report in HTML format (output in text format or JSON format is also possible). By analyzing the log information graphed, it is much more prospective for people to see than the raw log data. So, if you do not need to handle it with another tool separately, we recommend report output in HTML format. 2.Many statistical objects A lot of data useful for database performance analysis is output in the report as shown below.

PostgreSQL pgBadger

-
pgBadger is a PostgreSQL log analyzer built for speed with fully reports from your PostgreSQL log file. It's a single and small Perl script that outperforms any other PostgreSQL log analyzer. It is written in pure Perl and uses a JavaScript library (flotr2) to draw graphs so that you don't need to install any additional Perl modules or other packages. Furthermore, this library gives us more features such as zooming. pgBadger also uses the Bootstrap JavaScript library and the FontAwesome webfont for better design. Everything is embedded. pgBadger is able to autodetect your log file format (syslog, stderr or csvlog). It is designed to parse huge log files as well as gzip compressed files. See a complete list of features below. Supported compressed format are gzip, bzip2 and xz. For the xz format you must have an xz version upper than 5.05 that supports the --robot option. All charts are zoomable and can be saved as PNG images. You can also limit pgBadger to only report err
